Inside Out Tours presents the Greenlight Poetry Slam
Thursday, June 24, 7:30 PM

Award-winning Brooklyn-based company Inside Out Tours leads visitors and local residents to great cultural experiences "off the beaten path" in Brooklyn's vibrant and diverse neighborhoods. Inside Out not only leads you to exciting destinations, they also create destinations, including Greenlight’s new poetry slam series on the last Thursday of every month this summer. Join us to hear some great performance poets, and sign up to take the stage and compete in the slam for prizes and glory.

Host Mo Beasley is an award-winning Brooklyn performance poet, spoken word artist, published playwright, educator, and recording artist. He has featured at legendary stages from the Blue Note to the Nuyorican Poets Cafe, and teaches performance poetry to high school students. Spoken word artists Alejandro Thompson and Alvin James will be among the poets slamming this evening; the slam is open to performers of all ages and will follow standard three-round rules. The first prize is a free tour with Inside Out, and runners-up will receive poetry books from Greenlight Bookstore.
